<v Speaker 1>Emma Joe Morris is here for her weekly visit with us.

0:00:34.040 --> 0:00:36.360
<v Speaker 1>We had a lot to talk to you, Am about.

0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's start with the I think the biggest thing that's

0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:43.839
<v Speaker 1>jermaine to our corner of the media ecosystem, which is

0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:48.159
<v Speaker 1>these revelations that the Southern Poverty Law Center was sending

0:00:48.240 --> 0:00:51.960
<v Speaker 1>money to the far right, but not really far right,

0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:56.160
<v Speaker 1>just sort of rage bait racists, and that they may

0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:59.480
<v Speaker 1>have even been astroturfing some of the most famous events

0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:03.240
<v Speaker 1>of deep racial unrest and hatred the Democrats have weaponized

0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:06.039
<v Speaker 1>over the last several years in this country, and they've

0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 1>laid the predicate for some major Democrat campaigns, including Joe Biden's.

0:01:10.560 --> 0:01:13.399
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about the Charlottesfield Unite the Right rally there's

0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:15.679
<v Speaker 1>so much in this and again I want to be

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:18.520
<v Speaker 1>clear with the audience, it's a chicken and egg scenario.

0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:19.520
<v Speaker 3>We don't know.

0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 1>Exactly if the SPLC just paid informants after the fact,

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>or if they paid them too specifically gin up and

0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:30.760
<v Speaker 1>animate the rallies, but we know what we expect it

0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:32.800
<v Speaker 1>to be, and we certainly can read between the lines

0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:35.160
<v Speaker 1>with the language that's coming out of the Trump administration

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>that suggests that they believe pretty clearly the SPLC was

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:44.200
<v Speaker 1>astroturfing racial unrest and actually paying for the racial violence

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.000
<v Speaker 1>that we saw, which is very rare in this country overall,

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:49.040
<v Speaker 1>they were actually paying for it to occur.

0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:51.279
<v Speaker 3>And it's just a monumental moment.

0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 1>We can't say enough about it, But give me your

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>first of all, your overall take on it.

0:01:56.960 --> 0:02:00.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, okay, well my overall take on it is. I

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:02.920
<v Speaker 3>know that I'm supposed to be like outraged and shocked,

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:09.440
<v Speaker 3>but you know, a leftist group making up racism in

0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:15.079
<v Speaker 3>order to accumulate power and money, Like wow, how do

0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:22.360
<v Speaker 3>like this is like the oldest and only kind of

0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:24.800
<v Speaker 3>trick they have and it's just like another time that

0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:26.760
<v Speaker 3>they did it. Like I know that there's been a

0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 3>lot of outrage on the right, and you know, fairly so.

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:32.040
<v Speaker 3>But you know, like I was just I was thinking

0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:33.640
<v Speaker 3>about it this morning, and I'm like trying to like

0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:36.799
<v Speaker 3>summon like rage and then like I'm you know, getting

0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:39.080
<v Speaker 3>ready to come to my office, and I'm like, so

0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:42.639
<v Speaker 3>can we agree that there were fine people on both sides.

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:48.640
<v Speaker 1>You know what's interesting to me about this with the

0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:52.520
<v Speaker 1>your your point is that this does just confirm what

0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.359
<v Speaker 1>we all knew was happening. And but hopefully I think

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:57.600
<v Speaker 1>it does open up some people's eyes to people who

0:02:57.639 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 1>thought we were nuts for saying this, because this has

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 1>been my experience over my entire career since I started

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>at Bright part when I was in my early twenties,

0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:07.880
<v Speaker 1>is that I'll believe something, I'll see it crystal clear,

0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:10.919
<v Speaker 1>and then people will think that I'm crazy for having

0:03:11.000 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 1>that thought. Like you could say that we'll talk about

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 1>immigration later in the show, but you know, as someone

0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:19.440
<v Speaker 1>who lived in La and saw LA deteriorate because of

0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:24.400
<v Speaker 1>illegal immigration, and to see that the place became less

0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:28.520
<v Speaker 1>it became more lawless, and that the school systems became

0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:31.720
<v Speaker 1>less usable and the hospitals are more overrun, and for

0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:33.240
<v Speaker 1>me to just say, yeah, that seems like a bad

0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>thing overall in general, and then people say you must

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:38.000
<v Speaker 1>be a racist for you to say that. And then

0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:39.640
<v Speaker 1>ten years later I was like, oh, yeah, that was

0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:41.920
<v Speaker 1>a good point. Yeah, that definitely was ruining the healthcare

0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 1>in the school system, Like, yes, of course it was.

0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 1>We weren't saying this to be crazy. And this whole

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>thing with these astroturfed left wing agitation that we say

0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>the Soros funds of the protests, and we believe that

0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:56.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the violence is astroturfed. And you see

0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:59.880
<v Speaker 1>these footages from Charlottesville with the bed bathroom beyond tiki torch,

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.920
<v Speaker 1>and they look so stage and fake and gay. And

0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:08.040
<v Speaker 1>then we just accepted it sort of, but I didn't totally.

0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:09.480
<v Speaker 3>And then now we can look back at it, we

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 3>can reappraise it. Yeah, well definitely, and listen, I mean

0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:15.640
<v Speaker 3>I just maybe I'm like especially cynical about this because

0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:18.160
<v Speaker 3>this is like kind of I feel like I work

0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:21.080
<v Speaker 3>in this space where my work exists because of the

0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:28.359
<v Speaker 3>aftermath of this, which exists all over the philanthropy industrial complex,

0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:30.279
<v Speaker 3>which is kind of what I call it. And surely

0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:35.120
<v Speaker 3>you've reported on it at Brightbart where this is exactly

0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:36.920
<v Speaker 3>the play whether it be like you know, the Human

0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:39.440
<v Speaker 3>Rights Campaign is another group that comes to mind that

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 3>has a very similar playbook on the left, the institutional left,

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:49.080
<v Speaker 3>where they make up a problem and then they convince

0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:52.080
<v Speaker 3>everybody that it's real and then they charge an exorbitant

0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:55.000
<v Speaker 3>fee to solve it, and in doing that they rip

0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 3>apart the social fabric of the country. The HRC obviously

0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 3>in their case it's with regard to gay rights, and

0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:07.320
<v Speaker 3>it's it's an extremely lucrative and extremely evil business. And

0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:12.040
<v Speaker 3>I see this as basically the way that the modern

0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:17.000
<v Speaker 3>life kind of stays institutional and stays wealthy. And I

0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:19.080
<v Speaker 3>just see right through it immediately. So I saw this

0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:22.120
<v Speaker 3>a SPLC thing, and I was like, yeah, like, obviously

0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:26.240
<v Speaker 3>that's what they do. And obviously money goes to perpetuating

0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:28.680
<v Speaker 3>the exact problem they claim to solve. You can't solve

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:31.440
<v Speaker 3>the problem because then what are you gonna do?

0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:36.360
<v Speaker 1>So this is Yeah, it's an interesting thing that I

0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 1>always thought about this with. I wonder how some of

0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:43.279
<v Speaker 1>my friends, the pro life movement we're doing after ROV

0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:46.240
<v Speaker 1>way got overturned. You know, when you build your whole

0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:49.000
<v Speaker 1>business around well, we got to overturn roe v way

0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:50.960
<v Speaker 1>that if you do that, I wonder how the donor

0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:53.880
<v Speaker 1>dollars turned out. And I hope people still don't into

0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:56.359
<v Speaker 1>those causes because there's still so many abortions in this country.

0:05:57.040 --> 0:06:00.600
<v Speaker 1>But overall, I always had that thought that it's interesting,

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:02.440
<v Speaker 1>like that's say, what do you do from that?

0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:04.240
<v Speaker 3>What's you use at the top of the h that's it?

0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:05.880
<v Speaker 3>Did you make up? You have to make up a

0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:08.640
<v Speaker 3>new outrage? And it's so funny because I happened to

0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:13.320
<v Speaker 3>have hung out with the Klan a year ago, and

0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:16.359
<v Speaker 3>I find that it's funny to keep your eyes open

0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:18.839
<v Speaker 3>when something happens to you in real life and try

0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 3>to compare it to what you thought based on like

0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 3>the propaganda you consume. And it was totally different. The

0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:28.320
<v Speaker 3>audience may think I'm joking, but I'm not. It had

0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 3>to be in Arkansas, in Northwest Arkansas for work last summer,

0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:35.920
<v Speaker 3>and while I was there, I ended up in clan

0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:42.159
<v Speaker 3>Town somehow with John Levigne, of all people, and they

0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:46.360
<v Speaker 3>assumed that we were married, which is a common assumption

0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 3>about me and John Levine that we get all the time. Uh,

0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.320
<v Speaker 3>And so we just went with that and didn't reveal

0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:54.480
<v Speaker 3>that we were like cosmopolitan, like gay Jews.

0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:58.160
<v Speaker 1>So interaction has been on the show. Who's at the

0:06:58.240 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Washington Free Beacon now?

0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:01.719
<v Speaker 3>So so, but tell me I was right to say

0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:04.520
<v Speaker 3>I was in the middle of HQ and I wasn't

0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:08.760
<v Speaker 3>seeing some sort of robust movement.

0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:14.080
<v Speaker 1>So I did not have a lot of interaction with

0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:16.239
<v Speaker 1>the Klan in my life, believe it or not. Despite

0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:19.480
<v Speaker 1>the fact that our website Right Party has been referred

0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:21.640
<v Speaker 1>to as like a safe space for neo Nazis, I

0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:24.680
<v Speaker 1>actually don't have a lot of acquaintances growing up in

0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:26.920
<v Speaker 1>West LA and living in Washington, d C. And you know,

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.360
<v Speaker 1>living in the Los Angeles suburb, not a lot of

0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:34.040
<v Speaker 1>clan rallies around where I've ever lived. So, Emma phill

0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Us in what's the clan like? Are they like the

0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 1>guys at the Unite the Right rally?

0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? So, you know, I don't want to like, I

0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:46.120
<v Speaker 3>don't want to be accused of doing clan apologetics on

0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:50.400
<v Speaker 3>the show, but I didn't feel super threatened by them. Granted,

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:54.320
<v Speaker 3>I will obviously caveat that by saying that I look like,

0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:56.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, if you don't ask me anything about what

0:07:56.600 --> 0:08:01.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm about, which they didn't, then you know I could

0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:04.400
<v Speaker 3>if you're incurious, you would never know that you hate me.

0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:08.880
<v Speaker 3>So that was my experience. It was like very normal,

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:14.520
<v Speaker 3>except that they were proudly showing me a bomb manual

0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:22.800
<v Speaker 3>and a swastika like magazine. Yeah. Yeah, I just ended

0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:26.280
<v Speaker 3>up in a shop in I think it's called Harrisburg,

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 3>Arkansas or Harristown or whatever. And I'd been not just

0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:34.839
<v Speaker 3>driving and I and we stopped at the antique store

0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:37.920
<v Speaker 3>and this woman was manning the store. She was an

0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:42.320
<v Speaker 3>older lady, and she certainly wasn't menacing. She certainly was

0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 3>proud of obvious white terrorism. But that said, she wasn't

0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:51.400
<v Speaker 3>being provocative, and she certainly didn't look like the photos

0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:54.960
<v Speaker 3>and videos that we were shown. She certainly wasn't looking

0:08:55.000 --> 0:08:57.640
<v Speaker 3>to make any sort of political point. She was it

0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:00.760
<v Speaker 3>seemed like just sharing something that she felt passionately about.

0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 3>If I'm being totally honest and fair about my interaction

0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:09.839
<v Speaker 3>with her, she wasn't. She wasn't like put like forward

0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 3>in a way. She seemed to not register how outrageous

0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.360
<v Speaker 3>her political beliefs are. Yeah.

0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:19.439
<v Speaker 1>Just what it's interesting to me is that we have

0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:22.640
<v Speaker 1>always thought of at least a bright part that if

0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 1>the Klan was a real threat. They would have reached

0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:26.760
<v Speaker 1>out at some point, like we would have had a

0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:29.080
<v Speaker 1>conversation with them, and we would have said that, hey,

0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:32.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, you're not welcome in our corner of the internet,

0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:35.079
<v Speaker 1>but it's thanks for putting your hand up so we

0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:36.520
<v Speaker 1>at least know you're not entirely fake.

0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 3>But now you get the SBOC thing. It took me physically.

0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:45.280
<v Speaker 3>Have you ever even encountered them? Like that's a thing. Nothing.

0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.800
<v Speaker 3>I couldn't name a Klansman other than David Duke. I

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 3>get that.

0:09:48.160 --> 0:09:49.920
<v Speaker 1>That's the hope I've been saying this, like I can't

0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:53.440
<v Speaker 1>name a Klansman and that's the whole They don't have

0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:56.680
<v Speaker 1>won who because you know, the media would have found

0:09:56.679 --> 0:09:59.440
<v Speaker 1>that Klansman and made them a superstar. They would have

0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.000
<v Speaker 1>done given the whole Nick Wents treatment. And it just

0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:04.600
<v Speaker 1>reminds you, this is a whole thing. This shows you

0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:06.880
<v Speaker 1>that with all of these people on the right, who

0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 1>are you know? And I'm not sure exactly what Nick

0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:13.240
<v Speaker 1>went as his alchemy is specifically because he's a charismatic

0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:15.120
<v Speaker 1>guy even though he's a racist, but he's if he

0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:17.319
<v Speaker 1>was just like thought of as a stand up comedian

0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:19.280
<v Speaker 1>I think people would understand him a lot better.

0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:21.840
<v Speaker 3>But he says a lot of hateful stuff. I'm not

0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:22.600
<v Speaker 3>trying to dismiss that.

0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:25.560
<v Speaker 1>But overall, there's all these far rid voices that have

0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:28.560
<v Speaker 1>clearly been amplified, and I think now we're understanding how

0:10:28.559 --> 0:10:32.600
<v Speaker 1>they got amplify. They got amplified by the SBLC or

0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:35.080
<v Speaker 1>people like the SPLC. And this is why the investigations

0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:38.120
<v Speaker 1>need to continue, because now we learned the mechanism.

0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:40.520
<v Speaker 3>The mechanism is the SBLC is the ones.

0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:42.320
<v Speaker 1>That burned down their own house and then they're the

0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:44.360
<v Speaker 1>ones who run the insurance company and say, hey, I

0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:47.120
<v Speaker 1>need my million dollars because my house got burned down.

0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:47.800
<v Speaker 3>That's what they do.

0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:50.840
<v Speaker 1>We learn that, So now we always suspected it, now

0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:53.440
<v Speaker 1>we know it from the government. We also know that

0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden canceled this investigation even though that Joe Biden

0:10:57.960 --> 0:11:00.880
<v Speaker 1>said his entire predicate for running for president Charlottesville Unite

0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.400
<v Speaker 1>the Right rally, and Kamala here has kept echoing it.

0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.679
<v Speaker 1>You were observed enough to catch this clip for us.

0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna play this. This is from a debate between

0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Kamala and Trump.

0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:15.600
<v Speaker 4>Let's remember Charlottesville, where there was a mob of people

0:11:15.720 --> 0:11:21.920
<v Speaker 4>carrying tiki torches spewing anti Semitic hate. And what did

0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:25.760
<v Speaker 4>the president then at the time say, there were fine

0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:28.400
<v Speaker 4>people on each side.

0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:33.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I'm sorry, but she went to Harlem to hang

0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:36.679
<v Speaker 3>out with Al Sharpton. If you want to talk about

0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:40.680
<v Speaker 3>spewing anti Semitic hate. I'm old enough to not have

0:11:40.760 --> 0:11:43.920
<v Speaker 3>been there, but still remember the Crown Heights riots. She

0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:45.840
<v Speaker 3>is just I mean, aside from the fact that they

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.080
<v Speaker 3>obviously knew what the SBOC was ju which was why

0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:53.440
<v Speaker 3>the investigation was shut down in the administration, stop it.

0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:57.760
<v Speaker 3>She is so toxic. She's so toxic. Somebody who is

0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:00.640
<v Speaker 3>sitting and eating with Al Sharpton has no right to

0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 3>say a word, let alone somebody who's presiding over burying

0:12:05.160 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 3>the investigation what she knows is going on with Charlottesville exactly.

0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:12.360
<v Speaker 3>And it's interesting how the.

0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Bullet we dodged that these people who lied, of course

0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.160
<v Speaker 1>to find people hosts, which we documented bright part dozens

0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:21.640
<v Speaker 1>and dozens of times. It's in both of my first

0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:24.640
<v Speaker 1>two books going through how inaccurate that was. Donald Trump

0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:26.280
<v Speaker 1>never said they were find people on both sides. I

0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:28.960
<v Speaker 1>cannot take more time from the audience to explain this,

0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:31.080
<v Speaker 1>but he did not say that. He said he condemned

0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:35.959
<v Speaker 1>the neo Nazis totally. And yet the SPOC has been

0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:41.040
<v Speaker 1>relied upon by the tech establishment, by the media establishment

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:45.960
<v Speaker 1>as a justification for censoring or other ring or censoring

0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:50.839
<v Speaker 1>or limiting the reach and the signal of normative conservative

0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:52.559
<v Speaker 1>actors in the space.

0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:55.040
<v Speaker 3>And we're not.

0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Calling any of those people out yet. We haven't even

0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:58.120
<v Speaker 1>got our mind around it yet. That's why I'm hoping

0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:01.840
<v Speaker 1>we're in the early stages of this new cycle. Well, yeah, exactly.

0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:04.800
<v Speaker 3>That is really the bow on this whole thing, is

0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:07.960
<v Speaker 3>that the SPLC Center, which is the SPLC which is

0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:11.560
<v Speaker 3>literally just a fraud. It's you know, the way that

0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:14.720
<v Speaker 3>the Doha framed it is perfectly correct, I think, is

0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:19.640
<v Speaker 3>that they were taking people's money then pay the groups

0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 3>that they explicitly said they were taking the money to fight,

0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:28.520
<v Speaker 3>and in doing that they created this huge industry. They're

0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:32.280
<v Speaker 3>they're involved with not only tech companies and being recruited

0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:35.560
<v Speaker 3>by tech companies to dictate the censorship that included obviously

0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:39.880
<v Speaker 3>victimizing Breitbart probably at the top of the list, but

0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:43.200
<v Speaker 3>you know, think about all the corporations, all the think tanks,

0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:46.480
<v Speaker 3>all of the paper that they generated, the official paper

0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 3>that led our policy, both social policy and actual policy

0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:57.920
<v Speaker 3>on what counts as acceptable speech. It's like, this is

0:13:58.040 --> 0:14:01.840
<v Speaker 3>a travesty and it goes very deep. This isn't just

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:03.760
<v Speaker 3>like Scavving done us for a couple of million dollars

0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:05.560
<v Speaker 3>or whatever the way. I don't want to downplay that,

0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:10.760
<v Speaker 3>but there's there's this reaches very far, and it reaches

0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:12.840
<v Speaker 3>very far, by the way into corporate America.

0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:15.959
<v Speaker 1>It does reach into corporate America, and I think that

0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:20.720
<v Speaker 1>one thing to point out is how corporate America supported

0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:23.440
<v Speaker 1>the SPLC. But I noted this on the live show already, Emma.

0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:26.160
<v Speaker 1>But the poverty part the CEO is making for half

0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:28.560
<v Speaker 1>a million dollars, and I guarantee she's wetting her beak

0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:31.520
<v Speaker 1>in other ways too. But it's like, come on, no

0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:36.280
<v Speaker 1>poverty going on here. It's the so okay so insurrection Barbie,

0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:38.200
<v Speaker 1>which is one of the counts on X Everything app

0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:40.800
<v Speaker 1>which you flagged this one for US. Georgie and Lamal

0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:46.160
<v Speaker 1>Clooney publish public donations to SPLC a million dollars. Tim Apple,

0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:49.120
<v Speaker 1>from a formerly known as Tim Cook a million dollars.

0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:52.600
<v Speaker 1>JP Morgan Chase half a million dollars and also a

0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:57.280
<v Speaker 1>million at least another yeah, another million of the ADL

0:14:57.360 --> 0:14:59.840
<v Speaker 1>for them too. We could go into them MGM resorts

0:14:59.840 --> 0:15:00.920
<v Speaker 1>and million dollars.

0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:02.480
<v Speaker 3>They went from.

0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:05.720
<v Speaker 1>Sixty five million donations to one hundred and thirty after Charlottesville.

0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I think the number is actually understated. I think you

0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:09.280
<v Speaker 1>went like fifty to two hundred and thirty because I

0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:10.880
<v Speaker 1>played this exact graphic.

0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:12.040
<v Speaker 3>That's the whole thing is.

0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:16.000
<v Speaker 1>So they probably it appears funded the Unite the Right rally,

0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Kamala Harris and Joe Biden run on it, and then

0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:23.160
<v Speaker 1>they two and a half x their donations and get

0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:26.360
<v Speaker 1>them from the biggest corporation of the planet because they

0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:30.160
<v Speaker 1>purport to be defending the country for a hoax they created.

0:15:30.840 --> 0:15:35.600
<v Speaker 3>Yes, exactly. Let and never mind the the non monetary

0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:40.400
<v Speaker 3>kind of partnerships like you know, being recruited by social

0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:44.600
<v Speaker 3>media companies to define what counts is acceptable to say,

0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:47.200
<v Speaker 3>or what counts as acceptable to boost, or what counts

0:15:47.320 --> 0:15:51.000
<v Speaker 3>is you know, acceptable to see. Let alone the you know,

0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:54.840
<v Speaker 3>the partnerships with all these different organizations that help create

0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:58.280
<v Speaker 3>the paperwork for hr companies across this country for HR

0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:03.400
<v Speaker 3>departments across the country, a different companies like the Advocacy.

0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:07.000
<v Speaker 3>The policy Advocacy is actually to me scarier than the

0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.960
<v Speaker 3>amount of money that they were collecting off of this scam.

0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:13.880
<v Speaker 3>They were creating the balands of what's acceptable in behavior

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:16.600
<v Speaker 3>and speech. That's right. It was a massive Overton window mover.

0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:19.440
<v Speaker 1>And what I'm sad to say about this emma is

0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:21.840
<v Speaker 1>that you can make the case in a lot of

0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:24.360
<v Speaker 1>ways that they that they won that because Biden was

0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:27.240
<v Speaker 1>able to win in twenty twenty and they were able

0:16:27.320 --> 0:16:30.760
<v Speaker 1>to create I think, really move our expectations, particularly the

0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:35.240
<v Speaker 1>Democrat side, for a truth in I've long.

0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:36.600
<v Speaker 3>Said truth is not a left wing value.

0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:39.800
<v Speaker 1>I got this from my directly, from my mentor Dennis

0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Praeger in this regard, and I think it's been true

0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:45.400
<v Speaker 1>every step of the way. But the amount of lying

0:16:45.640 --> 0:16:47.920
<v Speaker 1>and deceit they're willing to tolerate in order to further

0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 1>their political gains just when to overdrive during Trump and

0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:53.800
<v Speaker 1>it just this is all the evidence you need to

0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:57.560
<v Speaker 1>know that you can't take left wing sources seriously. And

0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:00.080
<v Speaker 1>I feel like the fact that every major corporation and

0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:04.480
<v Speaker 1>another insurrection barbietweet that you flagged tying just every major

0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:07.720
<v Speaker 1>corporation you can think of to the SPLC in some

0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:11.240
<v Speaker 1>ways where they didn't cut them off when there were

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:13.520
<v Speaker 1>so many. It was so complicated at Breitbart when they

0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.639
<v Speaker 1>were canceling us for no reason in twenty sixteen, what

0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:17.240
<v Speaker 1>sort of.

0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:22.760
<v Speaker 3>Years ago. Yeah, and we talk about the advertising book.

0:17:22.880 --> 0:17:25.280
<v Speaker 1>We talked about all the d banking, which goes on

0:17:25.320 --> 0:17:29.560
<v Speaker 1>to this day of conservatives, Conservatives constantly in fear of

0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:33.120
<v Speaker 1>having parts of their digital life just removed from them

0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:36.840
<v Speaker 1>whole cloth because of their viewpoints. And then the SPLC

0:17:37.000 --> 0:17:41.439
<v Speaker 1>just working with all these major corporations while they were

0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:44.920
<v Speaker 1>trying to frame an entire movement to commit an insurrection

0:17:45.080 --> 0:17:46.640
<v Speaker 1>and to rigging election essentially.

0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:49.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and that's, by the way, the debankler, I mean,

0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:54.040
<v Speaker 3>I'm glad that's another one. The SBLC was going and

0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:57.720
<v Speaker 3>having contracts with the federal government. The de banking story

0:17:57.800 --> 0:17:59.480
<v Speaker 3>is about the federal government, by the way, and the

0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:03.560
<v Speaker 3>overreach and hostage taking that they do of banks. When

0:18:03.600 --> 0:18:06.440
<v Speaker 3>they say that this person is a threat, who tells

0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:11.240
<v Speaker 3>them what a threat is? This is? I feel, well,

0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:14.080
<v Speaker 3>that's it. It's this is like so this goes so deep.

0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:16.280
<v Speaker 3>This is like such a crazy this is actually a

0:18:16.320 --> 0:18:20.440
<v Speaker 3>crazy bombshell story. It's a whale. And I hope that Cash,

0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:25.720
<v Speaker 3>I hope that Cash just follows it to the end,

0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:28.800
<v Speaker 3>because there's so much to pull at here that you could,

0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:34.280
<v Speaker 3>like really just really take a lot of flesh.

0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:37.960
<v Speaker 1>We got the initial splash of confirming what we all

0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:41.920
<v Speaker 1>believed to be true, but now we need more detail.

0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:43.920
<v Speaker 1>We need to hammer this home, and we need to

0:18:44.000 --> 0:18:46.560
<v Speaker 1>figure out who is behind them, who knew what and

0:18:46.600 --> 0:18:50.159
<v Speaker 1>when at the extent to which the infiltration took place.

0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:53.040
<v Speaker 1>And also there's gonna be other groups like the SPOC

0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:54.199
<v Speaker 1>you did the same stuff.

0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:57.760
<v Speaker 3>And I think all of that about to me ratifying

0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:01.800
<v Speaker 3>the result of this. Ye Paul is pro with with guardrails,

0:19:02.000 --> 0:19:05.280
<v Speaker 3>especially with regards to the government and government contractors for

0:19:05.320 --> 0:19:07.320
<v Speaker 3>that matter, which include most of corporate America.

0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely right, And you know, you always got to be

0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:12.040
<v Speaker 1>aware of fake news. We thought we went through this

0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:13.959
<v Speaker 1>era of fake news era and then people just rejected it.

0:19:14.320 --> 0:19:17.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, this wasn't on our rundown today, But I'm

0:19:17.400 --> 0:19:19.480
<v Speaker 1>just going to spring it on you that you saw

0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:23.040
<v Speaker 1>this hop blode Maga influencer with a great rack turns

0:19:23.080 --> 0:19:26.240
<v Speaker 1>out to be completely fake, totally AI run by a

0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:30.960
<v Speaker 1>guy in India. Yeah, run by a guy in India.

0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:34.520
<v Speaker 1>The let's see, so.

0:19:34.600 --> 0:19:37.960
<v Speaker 3>This is among us in maga world online. Isn't an

0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:42.200
<v Speaker 3>Indian guy? Yeah, with an AI account?

0:19:43.440 --> 0:19:48.520
<v Speaker 1>So some guy named Sam who is a he's working

0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:52.560
<v Speaker 1>on he's an orthopedic surgeon in training in India, told

0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Wired he created an AI generated image of a young

0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:58.320
<v Speaker 1>woman named Emily Hart and.

0:19:58.680 --> 0:20:00.960
<v Speaker 3>She looks fantastic. It's just a fantastic AI.

0:20:00.840 --> 0:20:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Image and she says really based as expression goes things

0:20:04.680 --> 0:20:08.040
<v Speaker 1>on social media, and Maga World fell for it, and

0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I just I don't see a lot of the hallmarks

0:20:09.840 --> 0:20:14.400
<v Speaker 1>of AI. It looked pretty. It's pretty sophisticated. But I'm

0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:16.480
<v Speaker 1>just warning you guys. You got a buyerbleware on the

0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:19.200
<v Speaker 1>SAI stuff. But she was pro Christian, pro Second Amendment,

0:20:19.200 --> 0:20:23.760
<v Speaker 1>pro life, anti abortion, anti woke, anti immigration, and she

0:20:23.920 --> 0:20:26.560
<v Speaker 1>is racked up ten thousand followers a month.

0:20:26.680 --> 0:20:30.480
<v Speaker 3>Is dupe in all of us. The perfect influencer doesn't exist.

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:37.800
<v Speaker 3>That's great. I mean, you know, I tend to think

0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:43.320
<v Speaker 3>that these things will just end up becoming like this

0:20:43.400 --> 0:20:45.800
<v Speaker 3>is gonna just fry well First of all, it's going

0:20:45.840 --> 0:20:47.760
<v Speaker 3>to fry the brains of boomers in ways that we

0:20:47.840 --> 0:20:49.800
<v Speaker 3>never thought possible. And I know every time I say

0:20:49.800 --> 0:20:51.960
<v Speaker 3>something about the boomers, I get in trouble and I'm sorry,

0:20:52.000 --> 0:20:53.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry. I don't need to be offensive. But it's

0:20:54.000 --> 0:20:58.720
<v Speaker 3>just a difference and generational thing where there's an extremely

0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:03.480
<v Speaker 3>again lucrative sect in making up like extremely cliche conservative

0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:07.520
<v Speaker 3>talking points and accounts and then duping people who don't

0:21:07.560 --> 0:21:11.040
<v Speaker 3>have the uh the eye. Can I say that that

0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:14.080
<v Speaker 3>don't have the eye to spot things that are like

0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 3>clearly like a scam and stealing their data, money, engagement,

0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:25.520
<v Speaker 3>whatever it is. This is the next iteration probably of

0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:28.000
<v Speaker 3>that that you've seen, you know, taking over Facebook. And

0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:29.080
<v Speaker 3>it's sad, but.

0:21:29.560 --> 0:21:33.280
<v Speaker 1>It's sad, but you know, I'm hopeful about it because

0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:34.879
<v Speaker 1>this is the sort of thing that what if you

0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:36.440
<v Speaker 1>were someone who got sucked in, What if you're like

0:21:36.440 --> 0:21:38.280
<v Speaker 1>a big Emily Hart fan, you realize it was a

0:21:38.320 --> 0:21:43.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty two year old Indian guy, and like, maybe you'll

0:21:43.000 --> 0:21:45.800
<v Speaker 1>be so repulse with yourself you'll go outside and go,

0:21:45.920 --> 0:21:49.199
<v Speaker 1>you know, go for a jog or go rucking or something.

0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:51.680
<v Speaker 1>It's a or go take a pickleball or go get

0:21:51.680 --> 0:21:53.040
<v Speaker 1>some sunshine everywhere?

0:21:53.640 --> 0:21:55.160
<v Speaker 3>So like maybe this would be last draw.

0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Like I looked at myself in the mirror and I

0:21:57.600 --> 0:22:00.680
<v Speaker 1>realized I'm the problem.

0:22:01.040 --> 0:22:03.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah this is you thought call centers were bad, Just

0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:06.400
<v Speaker 3>wait till they get American flag bikinis.

0:22:06.840 --> 0:22:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah wow these apparently this fake creation had a only

0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:16.760
<v Speaker 1>fans also, So I mean, and then you could just

0:22:16.840 --> 0:22:18.840
<v Speaker 1>ton it. I mean, everyone's getting to be ten ten

0:22:18.880 --> 0:22:21.040
<v Speaker 1>millionaire over there, right, That's what I learned.

0:22:21.960 --> 0:22:24.240
<v Speaker 3>Why bothering being a doctor? That sounds like a lot

0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:26.280
<v Speaker 3>of school for real less money. Yeah, why is he

0:22:26.280 --> 0:22:27.240
<v Speaker 3>even training? Still?

0:22:27.280 --> 0:22:29.280
<v Speaker 1>He's got it down. Just just do it again. I'm

0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:33.679
<v Speaker 1>sure it'll work again. So all right, I want to

0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:35.160
<v Speaker 1>do a hard pivot here. I want to talk about

0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:38.680
<v Speaker 1>immigration with you the I want to get a sense

0:22:38.720 --> 0:22:42.280
<v Speaker 1>of where we're at on the immigration agenda here because

0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:48.520
<v Speaker 1>the Rationalson had a report out a poll that seventy

0:22:48.560 --> 0:22:52.120
<v Speaker 1>percent of Republicans say deport all illegal immigrants. So what

0:22:52.119 --> 0:22:54.919
<v Speaker 1>that means to me, Emma is thirty percent are not

0:22:55.000 --> 0:22:57.480
<v Speaker 1>sure that we should deport all illegal immigrants. Means that

0:22:57.560 --> 0:22:58.880
<v Speaker 1>some illegal immigrants.

0:22:59.000 --> 0:22:59.680
<v Speaker 3>Should be here.

0:23:00.040 --> 0:23:03.360
<v Speaker 1>I just don't know what that's about and it feels

0:23:03.480 --> 0:23:06.280
<v Speaker 1>like the same way I've been saying, woke is not dead,

0:23:06.320 --> 0:23:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Woke might even be making a comeback. It seems like

0:23:08.480 --> 0:23:10.720
<v Speaker 1>we're getting some currency with the dignid Dot Act, which

0:23:10.880 --> 0:23:14.080
<v Speaker 1>we've gone on and discussed on the show. There seems

0:23:14.080 --> 0:23:17.920
<v Speaker 1>to be a renewed belief that we can get some

0:23:17.960 --> 0:23:21.720
<v Speaker 1>sort of an amnesty done. The New York Times is

0:23:23.160 --> 0:23:25.440
<v Speaker 1>just had a big article which I think we both

0:23:25.480 --> 0:23:31.600
<v Speaker 1>came to independently, that suggesting that the basically glorifying being

0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:35.680
<v Speaker 1>an illegal alien and celebrating these people from Honduras who

0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:39.080
<v Speaker 1>came here illegally to have a baby that would be

0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:41.639
<v Speaker 1>an American and thus make them Americans. And the New

0:23:41.720 --> 0:23:45.160
<v Speaker 1>York Timess wrote this very positive way. I want everyone

0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:47.119
<v Speaker 1>to get a sense of this article. So let me

0:23:47.160 --> 0:23:50.399
<v Speaker 1>all throughout the name. She made sure her baby was

0:23:50.440 --> 0:23:53.399
<v Speaker 1>more an American than federal agents separated them. So it's

0:23:53.440 --> 0:23:55.920
<v Speaker 1>the federal agency the bad guys, not the illegal alien

0:23:55.960 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 1>who broke into our country to have an anchor baby.

0:23:58.840 --> 0:24:01.480
<v Speaker 1>It feels like we're backtracking here media wise, Emma, what's

0:24:01.520 --> 0:24:01.880
<v Speaker 1>going on?

0:24:03.119 --> 0:24:06.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Well, I mean I think that the Rassmussen poll

0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:10.879
<v Speaker 3>and the New York Times article are probably pretty you know,

0:24:11.240 --> 0:24:13.320
<v Speaker 3>the rass muse in pol tells you how many people

0:24:13.400 --> 0:24:16.480
<v Speaker 3>the New York Times article affected who are relevant to

0:24:16.520 --> 0:24:19.679
<v Speaker 3>this conversation, i e. Trump space, which is probably like

0:24:19.720 --> 0:24:22.200
<v Speaker 3>thirty percent. I think for thirty percent that is missing

0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:26.840
<v Speaker 3>from that group is like the people who have sympathy

0:24:26.840 --> 0:24:29.480
<v Speaker 3>for stories like this, where it's like, twenty eight year

0:24:29.480 --> 0:24:33.760
<v Speaker 3>old girl comes here, don't pay attention to the fact

0:24:33.760 --> 0:24:35.840
<v Speaker 3>that she was just deported for being in a car

0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:39.199
<v Speaker 3>with a bunch of cocaine in the glove box, comes

0:24:39.200 --> 0:24:43.760
<v Speaker 3>here to have a baby, just wants opportunity for the

0:24:43.800 --> 0:24:47.840
<v Speaker 3>baby and doesn't really count as a criminal because we

0:24:47.880 --> 0:24:50.520
<v Speaker 3>feel bad for her, and then gets arrested for being

0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:53.240
<v Speaker 3>a criminal, even though we don't think she should be one,

0:24:53.280 --> 0:24:56.040
<v Speaker 3>but she is one, and we all should feel bad

0:24:56.040 --> 0:25:00.240
<v Speaker 3>about it. You know. That's obviously they're going for that

0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:03.600
<v Speaker 3>thirty percent demo of Republicans and maybe trying to peel

0:25:03.600 --> 0:25:06.320
<v Speaker 3>off a few more percent of people who will feel

0:25:06.320 --> 0:25:08.160
<v Speaker 3>bad for this woman because she was taken care of,

0:25:08.240 --> 0:25:11.480
<v Speaker 3>taken away from her baby, which is certainly obviously the

0:25:11.800 --> 0:25:14.680
<v Speaker 3>probably most difficult thing that a human being can go through.

0:25:14.760 --> 0:25:17.320
<v Speaker 3>One of them at least being separated from a newborn

0:25:17.520 --> 0:25:23.480
<v Speaker 3>as a mother. But that said, obviously in their guest

0:25:23.560 --> 0:25:28.880
<v Speaker 3>for effort to glaze this person, they don't like pay

0:25:28.960 --> 0:25:33.080
<v Speaker 3>much attention to how awful she is and irresponsible she is,

0:25:33.640 --> 0:25:39.200
<v Speaker 3>because yes, that's right, it's unbearable to imagine being separated

0:25:39.200 --> 0:25:43.960
<v Speaker 3>from your newborn. How could how could you like break

0:25:43.960 --> 0:25:47.800
<v Speaker 3>the law and involve your baby in your crime? Like

0:25:48.000 --> 0:25:50.320
<v Speaker 3>what did you think was going to happen? So you know,

0:25:50.840 --> 0:25:54.240
<v Speaker 3>the article brought me to the exact opposite place, which

0:25:54.280 --> 0:25:56.159
<v Speaker 3>was first of all, not sympathizing with this woman, that's

0:25:56.160 --> 0:25:58.680
<v Speaker 3>for sure, because I don't sympathize with people who abuse babies,

0:25:58.960 --> 0:26:03.160
<v Speaker 3>but second of all, really shining a light on how

0:26:03.240 --> 0:26:06.760
<v Speaker 3>our policies just attract the scum of the earth. This

0:26:06.800 --> 0:26:09.600
<v Speaker 3>woman is the scum of the earth. Doing that to

0:26:09.840 --> 0:26:13.880
<v Speaker 3>a baby that's not one week old is so horrifying,

0:26:14.480 --> 0:26:16.760
<v Speaker 3>Like that baby is the one who has to go

0:26:17.000 --> 0:26:20.200
<v Speaker 3>and lay in a cold bascinet in a hospital alone,

0:26:20.680 --> 0:26:22.320
<v Speaker 3>waiting for somebody to pick them up.

0:26:23.440 --> 0:26:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it is quite quite the contrast to where I

0:26:29.160 --> 0:26:31.399
<v Speaker 1>felt like we were going as a country, especially when

0:26:31.440 --> 0:26:34.880
<v Speaker 1>you think about an affordability issue that we have. I'm

0:26:34.880 --> 0:26:37.800
<v Speaker 1>trying to get with him with so many Americans here,

0:26:37.960 --> 0:26:41.320
<v Speaker 1>the disconnect here that I'm trying to understand We're heading

0:26:41.359 --> 0:26:45.040
<v Speaker 1>into a whole new era because of AI comes up

0:26:45.040 --> 0:26:47.800
<v Speaker 1>so often now on the show that Americans are deeply

0:26:47.800 --> 0:26:50.400
<v Speaker 1>insecure that we're heading towards an AI jobs apocalypse.

0:26:50.920 --> 0:26:55.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yes, go on, Yeah, And so.

0:26:55.520 --> 0:26:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Why are we renewing our desire to import a under

0:27:00.160 --> 0:27:04.080
<v Speaker 1>class of foreigners to come into this country to further

0:27:04.200 --> 0:27:07.720
<v Speaker 1>drive down wages of Americans when everyone is concerned that

0:27:07.840 --> 0:27:10.400
<v Speaker 1>AI is going to cost more jobs and adds And

0:27:10.440 --> 0:27:12.960
<v Speaker 1>that's where my money is. My money's on that. I'm

0:27:12.960 --> 0:27:16.000
<v Speaker 1>not saying that AI might not be a net plus

0:27:16.080 --> 0:27:17.959
<v Speaker 1>in the long run. I think it probably won't, but

0:27:18.040 --> 0:27:22.760
<v Speaker 1>I remain optimistic. But overall, we know that it just

0:27:22.760 --> 0:27:25.080
<v Speaker 1>doesn't stand a reason that we're going to have a

0:27:25.240 --> 0:27:29.440
<v Speaker 1>glut of jobs with a disrupt the job market obviously.

0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:32.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and so that was Yeah, that was definitely something

0:27:32.320 --> 0:27:34.600
<v Speaker 3>that really stuck out to me as like a background

0:27:34.800 --> 0:27:37.280
<v Speaker 3>kind of thought too, is like, Wow, we're coming into

0:27:37.320 --> 0:27:39.960
<v Speaker 3>a huge disruption in the job market in the next

0:27:40.000 --> 0:27:44.560
<v Speaker 3>ten years, and like this is not helping bringing in

0:27:44.720 --> 0:27:47.679
<v Speaker 3>hordes of people and giving them all kinds of loopholes

0:27:47.720 --> 0:27:50.320
<v Speaker 3>to become, you know, able to work in this country.

0:27:50.440 --> 0:27:53.439
<v Speaker 3>Isn't helping. The second thing that really said to me

0:27:53.640 --> 0:27:55.680
<v Speaker 3>in the article, and I highly recommend everybody in the

0:27:55.720 --> 0:27:58.280
<v Speaker 3>audience go read it. Please go read it, because it

0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:03.359
<v Speaker 3>is so perfect. It's so perfect, and it really helps

0:28:03.400 --> 0:28:06.680
<v Speaker 3>I think describe. I love first person reporting. I love

0:28:06.720 --> 0:28:10.040
<v Speaker 3>reporting that has, like, you know, one character, a subject

0:28:10.280 --> 0:28:13.320
<v Speaker 3>that you're following, and that subject really paints a picture

0:28:13.320 --> 0:28:16.160
<v Speaker 3>of a broader story. And this is so good at that.

0:28:16.240 --> 0:28:19.200
<v Speaker 3>And that one thing that this displays, too is how

0:28:19.280 --> 0:28:22.960
<v Speaker 3>little they regard the value of US citizenship in terms

0:28:22.960 --> 0:28:25.840
<v Speaker 3>of its symbolic value. You see that where the parents

0:28:25.920 --> 0:28:28.560
<v Speaker 3>or the parents end up getting Basically, these people come

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:30.880
<v Speaker 3>in for the express purpose of having an anchor baby.

0:28:30.880 --> 0:28:33.200
<v Speaker 3>They've already been deported, and the reason they've been deported

0:28:33.320 --> 0:28:36.280
<v Speaker 3>is because they've been here illegally, and also they got

0:28:36.280 --> 0:28:41.080
<v Speaker 3>caught with cocaine, so they get deported to Honduras, which

0:28:41.120 --> 0:28:43.080
<v Speaker 3>by the way, they're not even actually from. They were

0:28:43.080 --> 0:28:45.880
<v Speaker 3>in Honduras chilling there and then came to the US

0:28:45.920 --> 0:28:49.880
<v Speaker 3>from there and as the third place that they ended up.

0:28:50.240 --> 0:28:54.120
<v Speaker 3>But so anyway, they're in the safe country of Honduras

0:28:54.120 --> 0:28:56.560
<v Speaker 3>for them, and they are like, okay, she's like about

0:28:56.600 --> 0:28:59.840
<v Speaker 3>to pop, let's go back to the US. And they

0:28:59.840 --> 0:29:03.880
<v Speaker 3>get it obviously, you know, they violated a deportation order

0:29:03.880 --> 0:29:07.480
<v Speaker 3>because they're here now again. And so she gets taken

0:29:07.520 --> 0:29:09.560
<v Speaker 3>away from the baby. But the whole time, like the

0:29:09.560 --> 0:29:13.280
<v Speaker 3>whole thing with her boyfriend keeps saying it's just important

0:29:13.280 --> 0:29:15.720
<v Speaker 3>to get that piece of paper. And so she gets

0:29:15.720 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 3>separated from the kid. The grandmother comes and picks her up.

0:29:19.280 --> 0:29:21.400
<v Speaker 3>It's like the baby is like having some sort of

0:29:21.400 --> 0:29:24.080
<v Speaker 3>health is she she has her milk coming in. She's

0:29:24.120 --> 0:29:26.720
<v Speaker 3>having a crisis. Everyone's having a crisis because they've got

0:29:26.760 --> 0:29:30.560
<v Speaker 3>separated obviously. And then at the end they get the

0:29:30.640 --> 0:29:32.600
<v Speaker 3>porter back to Honduras and the kid pops up in

0:29:32.640 --> 0:29:36.120
<v Speaker 3>Honduras with them, and the last like line of it

0:29:36.160 --> 0:29:38.560
<v Speaker 3>is the boyfriend being like, well, you know, all word

0:29:38.600 --> 0:29:42.680
<v Speaker 3>that could we got that piece of paper. It's like, okay,

0:29:42.840 --> 0:29:46.840
<v Speaker 3>you are despicable. And also that's all this is a

0:29:46.880 --> 0:29:51.360
<v Speaker 3>piece of paper. Nothing else matters. Nothing about the country matters,

0:29:51.480 --> 0:29:53.960
<v Speaker 3>Living in the country doesn't matter, Caring about the country

0:29:54.000 --> 0:29:57.000
<v Speaker 3>doesn't matter. Yeah, yeah, Anya, it doesn't matter. This is

0:29:57.040 --> 0:29:59.239
<v Speaker 3>just a source of extraction for you to get that

0:29:59.280 --> 0:30:02.480
<v Speaker 3>piece of paper. You mentioned something there in passing.

0:30:02.800 --> 0:30:04.720
<v Speaker 1>But it was such a big deal is that the

0:30:04.720 --> 0:30:07.920
<v Speaker 1>they got also got deported for drug possession. And it's

0:30:07.960 --> 0:30:10.720
<v Speaker 1>one of these things where they the New York Times

0:30:10.760 --> 0:30:12.400
<v Speaker 1>goes out of their way to make it this seem

0:30:12.480 --> 0:30:14.280
<v Speaker 1>that it might not have been their drugs, might've been

0:30:14.280 --> 0:30:15.680
<v Speaker 1>like their odds drugs, and it.

0:30:15.600 --> 0:30:17.920
<v Speaker 3>Wasn't a lot of drugs in the car.

0:30:18.400 --> 0:30:20.320
<v Speaker 1>It's like exactly, And it's just one of these things

0:30:20.320 --> 0:30:23.360
<v Speaker 1>where I don't know, I've been for cars drugs.

0:30:23.640 --> 0:30:25.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah it was a car, Yeah, exactly, it was the

0:30:25.320 --> 0:30:27.680
<v Speaker 3>car's drugs. It was exactly.

0:30:27.720 --> 0:30:29.600
<v Speaker 1>It's it's one of these things where I've been on

0:30:29.640 --> 0:30:33.200
<v Speaker 1>the road for twenty four years now and I've never

0:30:33.280 --> 0:30:36.040
<v Speaker 1>been pulled over and had the car search and they

0:30:36.080 --> 0:30:37.160
<v Speaker 1>found drugs in my car.

0:30:37.280 --> 0:30:39.200
<v Speaker 3>So it's like I've been able to avoid it.

0:30:39.440 --> 0:30:41.560
<v Speaker 1>And so I just I don't have a ton of

0:30:41.600 --> 0:30:44.480
<v Speaker 1>sympathy if you're here illegally and you weren't able to

0:30:44.520 --> 0:30:46.880
<v Speaker 1>make sure that Hey, by the way, Auntie, if I'm

0:30:46.880 --> 0:30:50.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna or tia, is that a tia? If I'm gonna

0:30:50.480 --> 0:30:54.200
<v Speaker 1>drive your car. Please don't leave your your snow in

0:30:54.280 --> 0:30:57.560
<v Speaker 1>the glove box while I'm driving, because I don't want

0:30:57.560 --> 0:30:59.360
<v Speaker 1>to get deported if I get pulled over.

0:30:59.760 --> 0:31:03.800
<v Speaker 3>So wise Man once said, they're not sending their best

0:31:04.840 --> 0:31:07.120
<v Speaker 3>sending that No. Listen, I'm not going to cast an

0:31:07.120 --> 0:31:11.680
<v Speaker 3>aspersion on every single whatever. These particular people to me

0:31:12.200 --> 0:31:15.320
<v Speaker 3>are scum. I use that word, and I don't take

0:31:15.320 --> 0:31:19.680
<v Speaker 3>it back. You know you're You're just so. There's nobody,

0:31:19.760 --> 0:31:21.400
<v Speaker 3>nobody in the story matters to them.

0:31:23.000 --> 0:31:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Unbelievably, they don't care about Americans, and I I just

0:31:25.440 --> 0:31:28.320
<v Speaker 1>am hoping that Americans will see this. But here's the point,

0:31:28.320 --> 0:31:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and you've been commenting on this a little bit on

0:31:31.760 --> 0:31:34.640
<v Speaker 1>past shows, is that it's not just that we're have

0:31:34.680 --> 0:31:37.840
<v Speaker 1>too many immigrants relative to native born, which is which

0:31:37.840 --> 0:31:38.560
<v Speaker 1>is clearly true.

0:31:38.600 --> 0:31:41.880
<v Speaker 3>It's a the It's just a fact. And not say

0:31:41.920 --> 0:31:42.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm anti immigrant.

0:31:42.760 --> 0:31:44.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying that the balance is off if we want

0:31:44.680 --> 0:31:47.040
<v Speaker 1>to have a common culture at all, if we believe

0:31:47.080 --> 0:31:50.720
<v Speaker 1>American values. It's a why we should only be importing

0:31:50.760 --> 0:31:56.160
<v Speaker 1>people if they are going to adapt American values. American

0:31:56.200 --> 0:31:59.120
<v Speaker 1>values are very easy to say, e plurpersentam in God,

0:31:59.160 --> 0:32:02.240
<v Speaker 1>we trust liberty, the First Amendment, second Amendment. If you

0:32:02.240 --> 0:32:04.600
<v Speaker 1>can do that stuff and you know it, and you're

0:32:04.640 --> 0:32:06.760
<v Speaker 1>ready to do it, and you're ready to contribute and

0:32:06.800 --> 0:32:08.840
<v Speaker 1>not drain on the system. To add to the system,

0:32:09.000 --> 0:32:10.720
<v Speaker 1>there should be a certain level of immigrants. I'm not

0:32:10.720 --> 0:32:13.960
<v Speaker 1>saying there should be no immigrants, but overall, there was

0:32:14.000 --> 0:32:15.560
<v Speaker 1>no standard like that as far as I can tell.

0:32:16.120 --> 0:32:19.280
<v Speaker 1>And we are doing our best to intentionally import the

0:32:19.320 --> 0:32:22.600
<v Speaker 1>third world, not first world. We're not getting a bunch

0:32:22.640 --> 0:32:25.080
<v Speaker 1>of people who you know, have been had their nose

0:32:25.160 --> 0:32:31.000
<v Speaker 1>down in books, in the hollowed institutions in Europe and

0:32:31.040 --> 0:32:33.280
<v Speaker 1>in Asia, and we're bringing them in and they're gonna

0:32:33.320 --> 0:32:36.720
<v Speaker 1>stay and they're gonna contribute. No, we're importing third worlders.

0:32:36.880 --> 0:32:41.440
<v Speaker 1>That's the desire. What is this impulse that we're doing this? Yeah, No,

0:32:41.960 --> 0:32:42.800
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent.

0:32:42.840 --> 0:32:45.800
<v Speaker 3>And this reminds me of this series of articles that

0:32:45.840 --> 0:32:47.560
<v Speaker 3>came out, like opinion articles that came out like a

0:32:47.600 --> 0:32:49.080
<v Speaker 3>couple of weeks ago, and they were going kind of

0:32:49.120 --> 0:32:52.120
<v Speaker 3>viral online. One of them was from the Washington Post

0:32:52.120 --> 0:32:54.960
<v Speaker 3>that started it by Shahdi Hamid, who is apparently like

0:32:55.000 --> 0:32:57.520
<v Speaker 3>a pretty well known columnist there. I don't know him,

0:32:58.120 --> 0:33:01.680
<v Speaker 3>but he wrote this hall and that caught fire called

0:33:01.760 --> 0:33:06.360
<v Speaker 3>Muslims shouldn't have to assimilate to belong where He basically,

0:33:06.480 --> 0:33:10.400
<v Speaker 3>like strangely kind of says something to the effect of,

0:33:10.760 --> 0:33:13.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, Muslims fit in fine, like they're totally homophobic,

0:33:14.000 --> 0:33:17.360
<v Speaker 3>just like the right. It was a very strange take,

0:33:17.880 --> 0:33:20.120
<v Speaker 3>but anyway, you know, he was trying to say that they,

0:33:20.200 --> 0:33:24.240
<v Speaker 3>you know, there shouldn't be some sort of bending yourself

0:33:24.280 --> 0:33:26.000
<v Speaker 3>out of shape to come to the United States and

0:33:26.200 --> 0:33:28.800
<v Speaker 3>prove that you belong here. You should be able to

0:33:28.840 --> 0:33:31.760
<v Speaker 3>be who you are in a plural in a society

0:33:31.760 --> 0:33:36.120
<v Speaker 3>that embraces pluralism. And then there was another guy from unheard.

0:33:36.720 --> 0:33:38.239
<v Speaker 3>I can try to see if I can find it.

0:33:38.400 --> 0:33:40.320
<v Speaker 3>There was another guy from unheard who wrote, like a

0:33:40.320 --> 0:33:44.760
<v Speaker 3>pretty interesting response. Who doesn't seem to be who doesn't

0:33:44.760 --> 0:33:48.920
<v Speaker 3>seem to be from the right, That doesn't that isn't

0:33:48.920 --> 0:33:51.400
<v Speaker 3>the impression he gives. And I think he's Muslim as well.

0:33:51.440 --> 0:33:55.000
<v Speaker 3>And he wrote a response that was so true, saying

0:33:55.320 --> 0:33:58.480
<v Speaker 3>kind of like I'll split, I'll meet you halfway in

0:33:58.520 --> 0:34:02.720
<v Speaker 3>that perhaps there is and some sort of like strict

0:34:03.000 --> 0:34:06.560
<v Speaker 3>cultural rule that one must have to abide by, especially

0:34:06.560 --> 0:34:09.640
<v Speaker 3>if they have a religion that isn't the majority religion. However,

0:34:09.760 --> 0:34:13.440
<v Speaker 3>there is a responsibility to be on your best behavior

0:34:14.239 --> 0:34:17.359
<v Speaker 3>as a representative of a minority. And I thought that

0:34:17.360 --> 0:34:19.319
<v Speaker 3>that was a really interesting concept, and that is a

0:34:19.360 --> 0:34:23.680
<v Speaker 3>concept that's present in Judaism too, very strongly. I actually

0:34:23.719 --> 0:34:26.640
<v Speaker 3>even touched on it once talking about Josh Shapiro humiliating

0:34:26.719 --> 0:34:29.520
<v Speaker 3>himself in the name of Judaism. Yeah, to a democratic

0:34:29.560 --> 0:34:34.799
<v Speaker 3>primary where it's there's something so unclassy about in the

0:34:34.880 --> 0:34:37.520
<v Speaker 3>name of your group acting in a way that is

0:34:37.600 --> 0:34:43.120
<v Speaker 3>untoward or just rude or imposing in any way, And

0:34:44.120 --> 0:34:47.120
<v Speaker 3>that is I think like probably the correct take if

0:34:47.120 --> 0:34:51.040
<v Speaker 3>we have to live in a multicultural society, which I

0:34:51.080 --> 0:34:54.279
<v Speaker 3>think that at this point is the realistic position we're in.

0:34:54.760 --> 0:34:57.120
<v Speaker 3>It's like, you know, we're not Quebec, which I hope

0:34:57.120 --> 0:34:59.440
<v Speaker 3>that we talk about the California stuff next, but you know,

0:34:59.440 --> 0:35:02.480
<v Speaker 3>where I come from, there are certain things that are

0:35:02.520 --> 0:35:05.280
<v Speaker 3>not negotiable. We don't have freedom of speech. So for instance,

0:35:05.280 --> 0:35:07.839
<v Speaker 3>you have to learn the official language, and it's extremely

0:35:10.360 --> 0:35:14.799
<v Speaker 3>tongue in cheek goage to not know French, but we

0:35:14.840 --> 0:35:18.240
<v Speaker 3>don't have that here. So you know, in that case,

0:35:18.280 --> 0:35:20.840
<v Speaker 3>then we have to find some way of mutual respect.

0:35:20.880 --> 0:35:24.200
<v Speaker 3>And it can't be that I come here, get to

0:35:24.360 --> 0:35:28.239
<v Speaker 3>drive around with cocaine, flout every single law I can

0:35:28.320 --> 0:35:31.520
<v Speaker 3>find in my path, and then get a sob story

0:35:31.520 --> 0:35:33.320
<v Speaker 3>in the New York Times that you're also to sympathize

0:35:33.320 --> 0:35:35.040
<v Speaker 3>with me about that. It ain't it.

0:35:37.760 --> 0:35:42.040
<v Speaker 1>This is what's interesting to me is that the one

0:35:42.040 --> 0:35:45.000
<v Speaker 1>of Americas, I think some of our edge is that

0:35:45.080 --> 0:35:47.840
<v Speaker 1>we have had this strong set of values that are unique.

0:35:48.040 --> 0:35:50.840
<v Speaker 1>You can't think of another country that has both freedom

0:35:50.880 --> 0:35:53.760
<v Speaker 1>of speech and the Second Amendment is their key values

0:35:54.080 --> 0:35:57.719
<v Speaker 1>of many one that we do acknowledge our multiculturalism right

0:35:57.719 --> 0:35:59.960
<v Speaker 1>off the bat, but we're supposed to all work towards

0:36:00.440 --> 0:36:01.600
<v Speaker 1>the same goals.

0:36:01.640 --> 0:36:04.720
<v Speaker 3>The one it's at the end of the phrase one, Yeah, exactly.

0:36:04.719 --> 0:36:06.600
<v Speaker 1>You think that people are running the leering centers and

0:36:06.600 --> 0:36:08.880
<v Speaker 1>the fake hospices in California, Like do we think there

0:36:08.920 --> 0:36:11.560
<v Speaker 1>are many? One know they're trying to builk the rest

0:36:11.560 --> 0:36:14.399
<v Speaker 1>of us, and so that should be a mortal sin

0:36:14.680 --> 0:36:17.280
<v Speaker 1>to all of us. We should regard that as horrific,

0:36:17.600 --> 0:36:21.239
<v Speaker 1>and yet yet we don't, and then we're seeing increased Yeah.

0:36:21.280 --> 0:36:23.440
<v Speaker 3>Sorry, go ahead, that's such a deep point, you know. Sorry,

0:36:23.440 --> 0:36:26.040
<v Speaker 3>But the leering centers and the anchor baby thing, it's

0:36:26.040 --> 0:36:28.319
<v Speaker 3>all the same thing. It's it's not out of many one,

0:36:28.400 --> 0:36:32.399
<v Speaker 3>it's many come to undermine the one. That is what

0:36:32.480 --> 0:36:37.359
<v Speaker 3>they all are. It's undermining the collective cohesion of our

0:36:37.400 --> 0:36:39.200
<v Speaker 3>society and the culture of our society.

0:36:39.239 --> 0:36:42.600
<v Speaker 1>We don't do that, yere exactly, That's what And this

0:36:42.719 --> 0:36:44.799
<v Speaker 1>actually goes for cultural currency on the left, like that's

0:36:44.800 --> 0:36:49.120
<v Speaker 1>the whole thing. The SPLC undermines the cultural cohesion. That's

0:36:49.120 --> 0:36:52.040
<v Speaker 1>what they do professionally, that's what they do. This for sure,

0:36:52.040 --> 0:36:54.120
<v Speaker 1>we all could observe it, but now we know for fact,

0:36:54.640 --> 0:36:59.279
<v Speaker 1>with data and with the investigation has taking place. This

0:36:59.360 --> 0:37:02.520
<v Speaker 1>is a Congressman, Tom Swosey, who I think is a

0:37:02.600 --> 0:37:05.600
<v Speaker 1>New York congressman, and I want to play this clip

0:37:05.640 --> 0:37:07.960
<v Speaker 1>of him. This is a mainstream it seems like a

0:37:08.040 --> 0:37:11.719
<v Speaker 1>sis hetero and he's a white Democrat. Check out this

0:37:11.880 --> 0:37:12.560
<v Speaker 1>language here.

0:37:12.480 --> 0:37:15.000
<v Speaker 5>He's surrounded by some of his advisors that seemed to

0:37:15.040 --> 0:37:18.680
<v Speaker 5>be just everything's about, you know, a Christian nation. You know,

0:37:18.920 --> 0:37:20.880
<v Speaker 5>I'm a Catholic. I'm proud to be a Catholic. But

0:37:21.280 --> 0:37:23.399
<v Speaker 5>you know, this is not this is not a Christian nation.

0:37:23.560 --> 0:37:25.680
<v Speaker 5>Certainly there have been a lot of Christians involved in

0:37:25.760 --> 0:37:28.239
<v Speaker 5>the in the nation's history, but we're found that a

0:37:28.239 --> 0:37:31.680
<v Speaker 5>lot of people came to America, they escaped from England

0:37:31.760 --> 0:37:35.960
<v Speaker 5>and other places because of religious persecution, and that's why

0:37:36.000 --> 0:37:40.120
<v Speaker 5>the country was always set up without a national religion

0:37:40.880 --> 0:37:43.680
<v Speaker 5>or a national religious requirement. That's not to say there

0:37:43.680 --> 0:37:45.920
<v Speaker 5>was an influence by Christians, but there was an influence

0:37:46.000 --> 0:37:49.319
<v Speaker 5>by by by Jews. There was an influence even by

0:37:49.920 --> 0:37:51.520
<v Speaker 5>Thomas Jefferson talked about the Quran.

0:37:52.680 --> 0:37:54.800
<v Speaker 1>What what's he getting at here? That's the main point.

0:37:55.000 --> 0:37:56.960
<v Speaker 1>That's the main point I'm trying to get at. It

0:37:57.080 --> 0:38:00.640
<v Speaker 1>is not that the there isn't a out it's a

0:38:00.680 --> 0:38:02.560
<v Speaker 1>kernel of truth to because of course there is. We

0:38:02.560 --> 0:38:05.160
<v Speaker 1>don't have a declared religion. We're not going to have

0:38:05.200 --> 0:38:09.200
<v Speaker 1>a state sponsored religion. I would love it if Christians, Jews,

0:38:09.200 --> 0:38:12.759
<v Speaker 1>and Muslims all can work harmoniously towards that goal of

0:38:13.120 --> 0:38:15.800
<v Speaker 1>many one in this country. That's part of our founding principles.

0:38:15.960 --> 0:38:17.920
<v Speaker 1>But just going out of your way. What I resent

0:38:17.960 --> 0:38:20.240
<v Speaker 1>about this is going out of our way to act

0:38:20.280 --> 0:38:24.920
<v Speaker 1>as though the founders their framers and not wouldn't have

0:38:25.040 --> 0:38:27.160
<v Speaker 1>liked to have seen us have a Bible based, God

0:38:27.200 --> 0:38:30.359
<v Speaker 1>based society. It feels like this has been going on

0:38:30.440 --> 0:38:33.319
<v Speaker 1>for the last several decades. Are we getting happier? Are

0:38:33.400 --> 0:38:36.440
<v Speaker 1>we getting more productive? Are we getting more cohesive? Is

0:38:36.480 --> 0:38:38.920
<v Speaker 1>the national debt getting paid down? Are we winning all

0:38:38.920 --> 0:38:41.400
<v Speaker 1>the wars that we're entering? How are things going for us?

0:38:41.480 --> 0:38:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Are we hooked on pills? Are we hooked on our phones?

0:38:43.640 --> 0:38:44.880
<v Speaker 1>Are we have mental disease?

0:38:44.960 --> 0:38:45.560
<v Speaker 3>More or less?

0:38:45.760 --> 0:38:48.200
<v Speaker 1>It seems like the more we've touted this stuff, the

0:38:48.239 --> 0:38:49.719
<v Speaker 1>worst things have got for America.

0:38:49.760 --> 0:38:52.400
<v Speaker 3>And yet they're still in on it. Oh yeah, one

0:38:52.480 --> 0:38:55.240
<v Speaker 3>hundred percent, And it's such a fake. The left always

0:38:55.600 --> 0:38:58.840
<v Speaker 3>loves to use the slogan of separation of church and state.

0:38:59.040 --> 0:39:01.279
<v Speaker 3>Is like as if they have new respect for, you know,

0:39:01.320 --> 0:39:06.520
<v Speaker 3>the founding principles. But they love that one to performatively

0:39:06.680 --> 0:39:09.480
<v Speaker 3>say to conservatives who want to see more God in

0:39:09.680 --> 0:39:14.200
<v Speaker 3>public life, and that is not at all. They reverse

0:39:14.440 --> 0:39:18.840
<v Speaker 3>the meaning of that phrase. The reason that we decided

0:39:18.880 --> 0:39:21.040
<v Speaker 3>on the separation of church and state was so that

0:39:21.080 --> 0:39:26.239
<v Speaker 3>the state would not impinge on the churches operations, not

0:39:26.320 --> 0:39:30.640
<v Speaker 3>the other way around. It was to allow flourishing of

0:39:30.719 --> 0:39:34.120
<v Speaker 3>the church in public life and it not be restricted

0:39:34.440 --> 0:39:37.640
<v Speaker 3>by the government. It wasn't to make sure that the

0:39:37.680 --> 0:39:40.360
<v Speaker 3>government stays as secular as possible. And you can't have

0:39:40.360 --> 0:39:44.080
<v Speaker 3>any crosses anywhere. And by the way, there are certain

0:39:44.120 --> 0:39:48.160
<v Speaker 3>states now that are installing prayer rooms in public schools.

0:39:48.200 --> 0:39:50.840
<v Speaker 3>So I don't know if you remember that. We were told,

0:39:52.200 --> 0:39:56.840
<v Speaker 3>you know, scolded for wanting to have crosses in schools

0:39:56.920 --> 0:39:59.399
<v Speaker 3>in Christian areas, which, by the way, New York's third

0:39:59.400 --> 0:40:04.480
<v Speaker 3>congressional trict is one where Suzi is the congressman. But

0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:08.520
<v Speaker 3>we were scolded for wanting to have crosses in schools.

0:40:08.520 --> 0:40:10.879
<v Speaker 3>We were scolded for wanting to have the Ten Commandments

0:40:10.920 --> 0:40:15.719
<v Speaker 3>in schools. No, like, that's too like scary, it's too

0:40:15.920 --> 0:40:19.839
<v Speaker 3>like religious. We don't have a religion. Oh but as

0:40:19.840 --> 0:40:23.080
<v Speaker 3>it turns out, actually, if Islam is the majority religion

0:40:23.120 --> 0:40:26.040
<v Speaker 3>in your neighborhood, then you can do the prayer room.

0:40:26.800 --> 0:40:29.920
<v Speaker 3>So ha ha like it's just you know. The thing

0:40:29.960 --> 0:40:32.600
<v Speaker 3>about this that I find so disingenuous and obnoxious is

0:40:32.960 --> 0:40:37.359
<v Speaker 3>that this is only applied to when Christians are the majority.

0:40:38.160 --> 0:40:40.839
<v Speaker 3>When any other religion is the majority, they're allowed to

0:40:41.200 --> 0:40:44.440
<v Speaker 3>use public institutions for the religious ends. It's it's just Christians.

0:40:44.440 --> 0:40:45.880
<v Speaker 3>We have to sit down and be a little more

0:40:45.960 --> 0:40:49.239
<v Speaker 3>quiet with the cross stuff. Yeah, that's right, that's exactly right.

0:40:49.400 --> 0:40:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, everyone else can can play up their religion aside

0:40:51.800 --> 0:40:52.720
<v Speaker 1>from the Christians.

0:40:52.719 --> 0:40:55.880
<v Speaker 3>That's right. Good, all right, So let's let's let's.

0:40:55.719 --> 0:40:58.799
<v Speaker 1>Pivot to we're talking about California, which is I think

0:40:58.880 --> 0:41:01.840
<v Speaker 1>ties together a lot of this stuff because California's example

0:41:01.960 --> 0:41:04.280
<v Speaker 1>of a state that has imported the third world.

0:41:04.520 --> 0:41:07.000
<v Speaker 3>We continue to do so. We want open borders.

0:41:07.239 --> 0:41:10.000
<v Speaker 1>We like the idea of servicing people who take from

0:41:10.000 --> 0:41:11.879
<v Speaker 1>the system and just got here more than people who

0:41:11.880 --> 0:41:13.879
<v Speaker 1>have laid down routs and have paid in the tax base.

0:41:14.239 --> 0:41:17.520
<v Speaker 1>That's been our goal from the start. And let's see

0:41:17.600 --> 0:41:21.920
<v Speaker 1>if the citizens are able to make any sort of

0:41:22.120 --> 0:41:25.200
<v Speaker 1>a pendulum swing back in the direction of sanity.

0:41:25.280 --> 0:41:25.840
<v Speaker 3>Probably not.

0:41:26.000 --> 0:41:30.239
<v Speaker 1>There's a debate that took place on maybe a couple

0:41:30.280 --> 0:41:32.200
<v Speaker 1>days ago as people hear this, but I got some

0:41:32.200 --> 0:41:35.719
<v Speaker 1>fresh clips I want to share with you. First of all,

0:41:37.080 --> 0:41:43.279
<v Speaker 1>this is Tom Steyer talking about should illegal aliens or

0:41:43.320 --> 0:41:44.960
<v Speaker 1>not even alle aliens, but should be able who don't

0:41:44.960 --> 0:41:48.000
<v Speaker 1>speak English get commercial driver's licenses in California.

0:41:48.120 --> 0:41:50.120
<v Speaker 3>Check out this one, am I, mister Stier, where do

0:41:50.160 --> 0:41:51.480
<v Speaker 3>you draw the line on this?

0:41:51.520 --> 0:41:55.879
<v Speaker 2>Should language proficiency for truckers be strictly enforced, even if

0:41:55.880 --> 0:41:57.600
<v Speaker 2>it means that some of them.

0:41:57.440 --> 0:42:00.000
<v Speaker 3>Will probably lose their jobs? You have sixty seven.

0:42:00.680 --> 0:42:03.399
<v Speaker 6>I agree with what was said, which is we don't

0:42:03.400 --> 0:42:06.160
<v Speaker 6>know the context of this stop, but what I can

0:42:06.200 --> 0:42:10.520
<v Speaker 6>say is this racial profiling is illegal, and in fact,

0:42:11.200 --> 0:42:14.120
<v Speaker 6>picking on people based on the color of their skin

0:42:14.440 --> 0:42:16.440
<v Speaker 6>in the state of California is illegal.

0:42:16.840 --> 0:42:21.120
<v Speaker 1>So he's asked, should we have truck drivers who are

0:42:21.920 --> 0:42:24.000
<v Speaker 1>mandated to be able to read the signs on the

0:42:24.080 --> 0:42:27.040
<v Speaker 1>road they are traversing on to get a commercial license?

0:42:27.480 --> 0:42:31.640
<v Speaker 1>And his reaction is, it is illegal to racially profile.

0:42:32.040 --> 0:42:34.520
<v Speaker 1>And these are the guys who very welcomed the governor.

0:42:36.080 --> 0:42:38.680
<v Speaker 3>I think that's really racist. Like, I mean, I come

0:42:38.719 --> 0:42:40.839
<v Speaker 3>from a place where you don't. You have people who

0:42:40.840 --> 0:42:44.880
<v Speaker 3>don't speak a word of English and many of most

0:42:44.920 --> 0:42:48.919
<v Speaker 3>of them, all of them frankly, are white. So oh,

0:42:48.920 --> 0:42:51.400
<v Speaker 3>that's a great point. So because you're from a French product,

0:42:51.719 --> 0:42:55.279
<v Speaker 3>be a racial minority to non speak English, it's like

0:42:56.960 --> 0:43:03.160
<v Speaker 3>that sounds racist and dangerous. But sorry, go on.

0:43:03.800 --> 0:43:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's it's no, it's interesting because it's a great

0:43:06.960 --> 0:43:10.480
<v Speaker 1>point because all of you French Canadians who might have

0:43:10.560 --> 0:43:13.560
<v Speaker 1>immigrated to the United States legally or illegally, there's no

0:43:13.600 --> 0:43:14.399
<v Speaker 1>guarantee that you.

0:43:14.400 --> 0:43:18.400
<v Speaker 3>Know exactly are going to be targeted by the Trucker

0:43:18.520 --> 0:43:24.520
<v Speaker 3>Law and are having no representation in Tom's uh in

0:43:24.560 --> 0:43:27.080
<v Speaker 3>his in his passion defense.

0:43:27.480 --> 0:43:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Here's the big question for me that I'm always tracking.

0:43:30.320 --> 0:43:34.160
<v Speaker 1>This is my how are we doing? How are we doing?

0:43:34.280 --> 0:43:37.399
<v Speaker 1>Question that I asked virtually every show is that one

0:43:37.400 --> 0:43:39.600
<v Speaker 1>of our major political parties has talked nonsp about race

0:43:39.600 --> 0:43:43.520
<v Speaker 1>and only race, and they've done so for my entire

0:43:44.520 --> 0:43:48.720
<v Speaker 1>sentient life. And I just want to ask, are the

0:43:48.719 --> 0:43:51.000
<v Speaker 1>their states improving? Are people going to those states? Are

0:43:51.040 --> 0:43:53.520
<v Speaker 1>they fleeing as their tax rate going up or down?

0:43:53.680 --> 0:43:55.839
<v Speaker 1>Does quality of life getting better in their areas? When

0:43:55.880 --> 0:43:58.960
<v Speaker 1>all they do is talk about our racial rievances. And

0:43:59.080 --> 0:44:01.120
<v Speaker 1>because they keep doing, you know, I played a clip

0:44:02.080 --> 0:44:04.720
<v Speaker 1>earlier in the week of Kamala Harris at a black

0:44:04.719 --> 0:44:07.879
<v Speaker 1>women's forum where she's telling black women, I'm gonna get

0:44:07.920 --> 0:44:11.760
<v Speaker 1>mine also like you're the worst caricature you've ever heard

0:44:12.160 --> 0:44:17.960
<v Speaker 1>of a Democrat black sassy woman. And it's so pandering.

0:44:18.000 --> 0:44:21.800
<v Speaker 1>It's so belittling, it's so racist. It's racist, and I

0:44:22.320 --> 0:44:24.919
<v Speaker 1>feel like they're not getting any benefit. But they won't

0:44:24.960 --> 0:44:27.560
<v Speaker 1>come off of it politically. They won't say, you know what,

0:44:28.080 --> 0:44:31.160
<v Speaker 1>maybe we should try something different politically, And it's really

0:44:31.200 --> 0:44:32.560
<v Speaker 1>being tested right now in California.

0:44:34.160 --> 0:44:36.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, for so true. And by the way, Kamal Harris

0:44:36.760 --> 0:44:43.000
<v Speaker 3>another French Canadian talking down to minorities. Anyone doesn't get it,

0:44:43.120 --> 0:44:46.600
<v Speaker 3>go to Breitbart dot com and do like Colon Kamala

0:44:46.640 --> 0:44:48.080
<v Speaker 3>from Canada was the headline.

0:44:48.120 --> 0:44:51.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh man, that's one of my favorite Ama Joe investigations

0:44:51.360 --> 0:44:51.959
<v Speaker 1>at Bright Break.

0:44:52.920 --> 0:44:56.279
<v Speaker 3>But anyway, so yeah, no, but I think that you

0:44:56.480 --> 0:44:58.840
<v Speaker 3>kind of said it in the subtext of what you

0:44:58.960 --> 0:45:02.200
<v Speaker 3>just said, which is thing ever gets better and we

0:45:02.320 --> 0:45:06.719
<v Speaker 3>have to fixate on the most on the most inflammatory

0:45:07.200 --> 0:45:13.560
<v Speaker 3>and charged and offensive and distracting topic in order to

0:45:15.120 --> 0:45:19.480
<v Speaker 3>look away from how's life in California? Half of La

0:45:19.719 --> 0:45:22.000
<v Speaker 3>just burned to the ground. You know, how's life on

0:45:22.080 --> 0:45:24.960
<v Speaker 3>skid row? How's it going in the hospital waiting rooms?

0:45:25.000 --> 0:45:26.839
<v Speaker 3>I would love to hear from your wife about that.

0:45:27.200 --> 0:45:30.000
<v Speaker 3>You know, how's it going in your public schools? All

0:45:30.040 --> 0:45:34.200
<v Speaker 3>of these institutions and all of these infrastructures that we

0:45:34.320 --> 0:45:38.520
<v Speaker 3>pay exorbitant fees for. I'm sure your taxes aren't where

0:45:38.560 --> 0:45:41.759
<v Speaker 3>you'd like them to be now are being before us.

0:45:42.000 --> 0:45:48.000
<v Speaker 3>You have these zombie creatures called junkies roaming around your neighborhoods,

0:45:48.520 --> 0:45:54.520
<v Speaker 3>and and they're talking about the how it's racial targeting

0:45:54.520 --> 0:45:57.880
<v Speaker 3>to insist on English. It's all just falling back on

0:45:57.920 --> 0:46:00.560
<v Speaker 3>this talking point to not have to talk about everything

0:46:00.600 --> 0:46:04.239
<v Speaker 3>that was just listed by both of us. And you know,

0:46:04.360 --> 0:46:07.200
<v Speaker 3>I mean, unfortunately for Californians, it's like you get what

0:46:07.239 --> 0:46:09.480
<v Speaker 3>you vote for. Is I don't say that in a

0:46:09.520 --> 0:46:12.160
<v Speaker 3>way that's sassy. I live in New York City. God knows,

0:46:12.200 --> 0:46:14.560
<v Speaker 3>I can't say much, but no, I know. And that's

0:46:14.560 --> 0:46:17.520
<v Speaker 3>why I've embraced to be a thing is going to

0:46:17.920 --> 0:46:18.399
<v Speaker 3>ruin you.

0:46:18.719 --> 0:46:20.719
<v Speaker 1>And that's why I've embraced the Maame Dodd experiment because

0:46:20.719 --> 0:46:24.400
<v Speaker 1>I feel like people have completely content to watch us

0:46:24.760 --> 0:46:28.000
<v Speaker 1>like we're a chimpanzee's in a cave in a cage

0:46:28.120 --> 0:46:31.640
<v Speaker 1>going through the similar experiment out in California, where the

0:46:31.680 --> 0:46:35.480
<v Speaker 1>political class has chosen people who are not producers at

0:46:35.480 --> 0:46:39.399
<v Speaker 1>the expense of the producers, and it's they're testing us.

0:46:39.440 --> 0:46:42.400
<v Speaker 3>We who produce in the state, how much we're willing

0:46:42.440 --> 0:46:45.160
<v Speaker 3>to endure before we all leave. And that's what's being

0:46:45.239 --> 0:46:48.319
<v Speaker 3>tested here. All right, I got some more saying, just sorry,

0:46:48.480 --> 0:46:50.920
<v Speaker 3>just one more thing on this because the SPLC's we're

0:46:50.920 --> 0:46:52.799
<v Speaker 3>talking about the SPLC and now we're talking about Tom

0:46:52.840 --> 0:46:56.319
<v Speaker 3>Steyer in California, and you just you just have to

0:46:56.360 --> 0:46:59.239
<v Speaker 3>point out, like I mean, homelessness is like a great

0:46:59.239 --> 0:47:05.040
<v Speaker 3>example the homelessness. The industrial complex around philanthropy and California

0:47:05.040 --> 0:47:07.920
<v Speaker 3>and homelessness is insane. I don't know if you've ever

0:47:07.960 --> 0:47:09.759
<v Speaker 3>looked into it. Maybe it's worth doing, like literally a

0:47:09.760 --> 0:47:13.440
<v Speaker 3>whole episode on the corruption of nonprofits in California, but

0:47:13.480 --> 0:47:17.160
<v Speaker 3>they are basically being paid to perpetuate the homelessess crisis.

0:47:17.360 --> 0:47:19.520
<v Speaker 3>You think that a big Democrat is going to go

0:47:19.600 --> 0:47:24.319
<v Speaker 3>and point out real problems like that, No way, there's

0:47:24.360 --> 0:47:26.640
<v Speaker 3>too much money at stake. It's like you're gonna get

0:47:26.719 --> 0:47:29.000
<v Speaker 3>Eric Swollweld if you go anywhere near there.

0:47:31.400 --> 0:47:33.760
<v Speaker 1>This came up, homelessness came up. I got to Katie

0:47:33.800 --> 0:47:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Porter clips. Both are good. They're talking about homelessness. I

0:47:36.920 --> 0:47:38.839
<v Speaker 1>don't know which one I'm gonna pick first, but we'll

0:47:38.840 --> 0:47:39.960
<v Speaker 1>we'll play and don't react to it.

0:47:42.360 --> 0:47:46.760
<v Speaker 2>Porter same question, do you believe that English proficiency language

0:47:46.760 --> 0:47:49.600
<v Speaker 2>proficiency should be strictly enforced for truck drivers?

0:47:49.600 --> 0:47:50.560
<v Speaker 3>You have sixty seconds.

0:47:51.040 --> 0:47:54.800
<v Speaker 7>I would absolutely fight the Trump administration because the job

0:47:54.920 --> 0:47:58.719
<v Speaker 7>of the California governor is to protect Californians, and right

0:47:58.760 --> 0:48:02.080
<v Speaker 7>now that includes partecting them from Donald Trump.

0:48:02.640 --> 0:48:05.480
<v Speaker 1>Protecting I would like to think the job is to

0:48:05.560 --> 0:48:08.800
<v Speaker 1>protect them from illegal alien truck drivers who are running

0:48:08.800 --> 0:48:10.760
<v Speaker 1>into people on the road because he can't read the signs,

0:48:10.800 --> 0:48:12.200
<v Speaker 1>but it's okay, go ahead.

0:48:12.480 --> 0:48:16.640
<v Speaker 7>Protecting Californians also includes enforcing traffic laws, and we've seen

0:48:16.680 --> 0:48:20.120
<v Speaker 7>sometimes a need for oversight in California. For example, we

0:48:20.200 --> 0:48:22.680
<v Speaker 7>have seen that the Department of Motor Vehicles was not

0:48:22.800 --> 0:48:26.600
<v Speaker 7>enforcing rules around DUIs and drivers who had convictions for that.

0:48:27.280 --> 0:48:30.640
<v Speaker 7>I am stunned that mister Bianco would say to block

0:48:30.680 --> 0:48:34.239
<v Speaker 7>and brown Californians and immigrants who are being terrorized and

0:48:34.360 --> 0:48:39.359
<v Speaker 7>racially profiled that you have to get over racism. It's

0:48:39.400 --> 0:48:41.800
<v Speaker 7>not something that you get over, it's something that you fight.

0:48:41.920 --> 0:48:44.319
<v Speaker 7>And if he doesn't understand the importance of that, he

0:48:44.360 --> 0:48:46.360
<v Speaker 7>has no business representing a state with it.

0:48:46.800 --> 0:48:49.640
<v Speaker 1>So you see she goes on, it's all about the

0:48:49.760 --> 0:48:53.960
<v Speaker 1>point of trying to stop people who don't speak English

0:48:54.000 --> 0:48:57.400
<v Speaker 1>from getting commercial driver's license. The answer is that Trump

0:48:57.440 --> 0:48:58.120
<v Speaker 1>is a racist.

0:48:59.440 --> 0:49:02.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm just so confused because do they do something where

0:49:02.160 --> 0:49:04.120
<v Speaker 3>they like beat you up and then at the end

0:49:04.120 --> 0:49:06.279
<v Speaker 3>of the beating they say, do you speak English? And

0:49:06.320 --> 0:49:08.600
<v Speaker 3>that's the way that they test for, like you know,

0:49:08.640 --> 0:49:10.880
<v Speaker 3>whether you can have a driver's license to drive a truck?

0:49:11.280 --> 0:49:13.319
<v Speaker 3>Like what is it like? Like I feel like if

0:49:13.320 --> 0:49:15.600
<v Speaker 3>you just speak English, like you just tell them I

0:49:15.600 --> 0:49:19.000
<v Speaker 3>speak English in English and like we're good.

0:49:19.120 --> 0:49:21.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, And is it about passing a test, like,

0:49:21.760 --> 0:49:24.239
<v Speaker 1>because I mean you should be able to pass a test, right,

0:49:24.280 --> 0:49:25.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean we all I got to pass a test

0:49:25.960 --> 0:49:26.759
<v Speaker 1>to drive, like.

0:49:26.680 --> 0:49:28.520
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, like when it raisedst when I took my

0:49:28.640 --> 0:49:31.520
<v Speaker 3>driver's license test, Like I don't get it. Yeah, it's

0:49:31.719 --> 0:49:34.879
<v Speaker 3>literally don't understand this conversation. But they feel like your.

0:49:34.840 --> 0:49:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Whole philosophy they don't give an inch. They'll never give

0:49:37.560 --> 0:49:39.919
<v Speaker 1>an inch. They don't They're not going to give Trump

0:49:39.960 --> 0:49:41.359
<v Speaker 1>any victory. They're not going to give they're not going

0:49:41.400 --> 0:49:43.319
<v Speaker 1>to knowledge any of our points are accurate. And that's

0:49:43.320 --> 0:49:45.680
<v Speaker 1>where I feel like the system is really suffering. Here's

0:49:45.680 --> 0:49:47.480
<v Speaker 1>a perfect example. They're talking homelessness.

0:49:47.560 --> 0:49:50.839
<v Speaker 2>Now, what grade would you give him on homelessness? And what,

0:49:50.920 --> 0:49:52.760
<v Speaker 2>if anything, would you do differently?

0:49:52.840 --> 0:49:53.960
<v Speaker 3>You have sixty seconds.

0:49:54.080 --> 0:49:57.160
<v Speaker 7>I'm a notoriously tough grader, but I would probably give.

0:49:57.080 --> 0:49:58.680
<v Speaker 3>Him a bee on homelessness.

0:49:58.840 --> 0:50:01.600
<v Speaker 7>I don't think this is ba an easy problem to solve,

0:50:01.960 --> 0:50:03.799
<v Speaker 7>but I do give him a lot of credit for

0:50:03.840 --> 0:50:06.680
<v Speaker 7>calling attention to the problem. When he campaigned eight years ago,

0:50:06.719 --> 0:50:09.440
<v Speaker 7>he was talking about housing when nobody else was.

0:50:09.920 --> 0:50:10.160
<v Speaker 3>Well.

0:50:10.200 --> 0:50:12.440
<v Speaker 5>By the way, I'd love to be in your class, Katie,

0:50:12.480 --> 0:50:14.680
<v Speaker 5>if you get a beef, what gavin you some?

0:50:14.760 --> 0:50:16.160
<v Speaker 3>Still on homelesses? My goodness?

0:50:16.239 --> 0:50:18.640
<v Speaker 1>And Javierbasira, who's also on the stage and is pulling

0:50:18.719 --> 0:50:21.680
<v Speaker 1>under four percent. Former attorney general of the state, he

0:50:21.760 --> 0:50:24.680
<v Speaker 1>gave newso An a homeless has gone up thirty something

0:50:24.760 --> 0:50:29.800
<v Speaker 1>percent in California since he became the governor, and also

0:50:29.960 --> 0:50:32.040
<v Speaker 1>or at least in LA I don't for the whole state,

0:50:32.120 --> 0:50:34.960
<v Speaker 1>but overall it has gone up quite a bit. Everyone

0:50:35.080 --> 0:50:38.160
<v Speaker 1>knows that California is super cool to the homeless. South

0:50:38.200 --> 0:50:39.880
<v Speaker 1>Park laid it out a long time ago that this

0:50:40.000 --> 0:50:42.040
<v Speaker 1>is the place to be and it ruins so many

0:50:42.120 --> 0:50:46.480
<v Speaker 1>of the best neighborhoods. We've turned over so many of

0:50:46.520 --> 0:50:50.320
<v Speaker 1>our parks, not to the children of the tax payers

0:50:50.360 --> 0:50:53.920
<v Speaker 1>who the parks are intended for. There are just homeless

0:50:53.960 --> 0:50:56.759
<v Speaker 1>encamp campments. I make this point so often I go

0:50:56.800 --> 0:50:59.960
<v Speaker 1>into La into nice parts of town, and the parks

0:51:00.080 --> 0:51:02.400
<v Speaker 1>or overrun by the homeless, and then I go to

0:51:02.480 --> 0:51:05.000
<v Speaker 1>my little neighborhood in a suburb where there's a tiny

0:51:05.040 --> 0:51:07.520
<v Speaker 1>little gate around the park because I pay my one

0:51:07.600 --> 0:51:09.520
<v Speaker 1>hundred and seventy dollars a month to the HOA or

0:51:09.520 --> 0:51:12.680
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is, and it is like, it's like a dream.

0:51:12.840 --> 0:51:14.600
<v Speaker 1>It's like a dream for you to play with my

0:51:14.680 --> 0:51:17.960
<v Speaker 1>children in the park without harassment, without a pot smell,

0:51:18.320 --> 0:51:21.040
<v Speaker 1>and all of that is just we can do. That

0:51:21.280 --> 0:51:24.080
<v Speaker 1>is not that hard, and we've elected to not do it.

0:51:24.520 --> 0:51:28.760
<v Speaker 1>And this Democrat the worst grade the Democrats gave Gavenue

0:51:28.800 --> 0:51:29.719
<v Speaker 1>and not homelessess is a B.

0:51:30.840 --> 0:51:33.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Well, let's say kat Katie Porter can't. She can't,

0:51:34.160 --> 0:51:36.960
<v Speaker 3>she can't pull any threads on the homelessness industrial complex,

0:51:37.040 --> 0:51:39.440
<v Speaker 3>or we're gonna find out that she, you know, maybe

0:51:39.480 --> 0:51:42.520
<v Speaker 3>like pour its scalding water on her husband or something.

0:51:42.600 --> 0:51:48.200
<v Speaker 1>So do you think though, there's any Democrat out there

0:51:48.360 --> 0:51:50.919
<v Speaker 1>who is willing to at least say, hey, you know what,

0:51:50.960 --> 0:51:52.360
<v Speaker 1>we didn't do well on homelessness.

0:51:52.440 --> 0:51:56.399
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's just the factor there. The math is there. Well,

0:51:56.400 --> 0:51:58.840
<v Speaker 3>that's the thing is like for the group as a whole,

0:51:58.920 --> 0:52:01.279
<v Speaker 3>Like I like to times Zoom, I didn't think about

0:52:01.280 --> 0:52:02.840
<v Speaker 3>like the strategy just you know, you got to be

0:52:02.880 --> 0:52:05.759
<v Speaker 3>an adult and kind of not be too idealistic and

0:52:05.800 --> 0:52:08.600
<v Speaker 3>be a little real. There's always a strategy. So I

0:52:09.040 --> 0:52:12.120
<v Speaker 3>see like that there's this huge open lane where the

0:52:12.160 --> 0:52:15.520
<v Speaker 3>strategy for the group, for the establishment people can't be

0:52:15.880 --> 0:52:17.960
<v Speaker 3>to ever say any of this stuff that we're talking

0:52:17.960 --> 0:52:20.880
<v Speaker 3>about out loud. But given that reality, if there was

0:52:20.960 --> 0:52:24.640
<v Speaker 3>embody who wanted to pull a Trump, you know, who

0:52:24.680 --> 0:52:27.480
<v Speaker 3>wanted to kind of not have to rely on the establishment,

0:52:27.640 --> 0:52:31.400
<v Speaker 3>who wanted to not you know, perform like horrific sex

0:52:31.480 --> 0:52:35.840
<v Speaker 3>acts or some sort of strange abuse and have something

0:52:35.840 --> 0:52:37.960
<v Speaker 3>that could be leveraged over them, but really be an

0:52:38.000 --> 0:52:41.560
<v Speaker 3>honest person who is literally just trying to you know,

0:52:41.880 --> 0:52:45.680
<v Speaker 3>advocate for people. And if they were a Democrat, they

0:52:45.719 --> 0:52:48.000
<v Speaker 3>could do so much good. They could really do so

0:52:48.080 --> 0:52:50.920
<v Speaker 3>much good. Unfortunately that that was the point of treating Trump.

0:52:50.920 --> 0:52:53.200
<v Speaker 3>The way that he was treated was so that nobody

0:52:53.239 --> 0:52:55.880
<v Speaker 3>would ever dare on the right or the left. And

0:52:55.920 --> 0:52:58.160
<v Speaker 3>by the way, I would totally embrace any Democrats who

0:52:58.160 --> 0:53:00.879
<v Speaker 3>wanted to do this. You know that nobody would dare

0:53:01.480 --> 0:53:07.279
<v Speaker 3>to call out the ills and the missteps and the

0:53:07.400 --> 0:53:12.919
<v Speaker 3>crimes in some cases, and the corruption of the establishment,

0:53:13.120 --> 0:53:17.080
<v Speaker 3>especially in places like New York California where you have

0:53:17.280 --> 0:53:24.359
<v Speaker 3>these deep, dark corruption swamp on so many things that

0:53:24.400 --> 0:53:29.440
<v Speaker 3>matter so much, health, education, homelessness, public safety. There is

0:53:29.520 --> 0:53:32.239
<v Speaker 3>such a big opportunity, but you can't do it because

0:53:32.239 --> 0:53:33.279
<v Speaker 3>you'll get beat over the head.

0:53:34.400 --> 0:53:36.920
<v Speaker 1>It's so right, and it's very scary, and I feel

0:53:36.960 --> 0:53:38.799
<v Speaker 1>like that that's all we're asking. You don't agree with

0:53:38.880 --> 0:53:41.080
<v Speaker 1>us on everything, We're happy to disagree. But what I

0:53:41.120 --> 0:53:43.520
<v Speaker 1>am asking is that can we at least not take

0:53:44.000 --> 0:53:46.440
<v Speaker 1>a homelessess problem that was bad and somehow got worse.

0:53:46.480 --> 0:53:49.360
<v Speaker 1>It would have taken so little, just the smallest improvement,

0:53:49.840 --> 0:53:51.760
<v Speaker 1>and you could have given them an a hey, it improved,

0:53:52.000 --> 0:53:55.279
<v Speaker 1>it got worse. This isn't just that homelessness is not

0:53:55.400 --> 0:53:58.680
<v Speaker 1>guaranteed to get worse. It's not one of these scenarios

0:53:58.760 --> 0:54:00.919
<v Speaker 1>where things are inevitable going to get worse.

0:54:01.000 --> 0:54:03.040
<v Speaker 3>It is one more. They act like it's a law

0:54:03.080 --> 0:54:05.600
<v Speaker 3>of gravity, and it's not only not a lot of gravity,

0:54:05.640 --> 0:54:09.000
<v Speaker 3>but there's a fix everything button. Yes, it's it's just

0:54:09.040 --> 0:54:10.200
<v Speaker 3>improve it a little bit, a little bit.

0:54:10.480 --> 0:54:12.799
<v Speaker 1>Don't make it so that so many my weekend days

0:54:12.800 --> 0:54:14.200
<v Speaker 1>are ruined, so many neighborhoods are ruined.

0:54:14.800 --> 0:54:17.120
<v Speaker 3>Whatever. It's a it's a look, we can improve it

0:54:17.160 --> 0:54:21.879
<v Speaker 3>a lot. It's called it's called doing what is necessary,

0:54:22.920 --> 0:54:26.240
<v Speaker 3>and we all know what it is. Arresting people, moving

0:54:26.239 --> 0:54:29.600
<v Speaker 3>people off of the street, institutionalizing people who can't take

0:54:29.640 --> 0:54:32.080
<v Speaker 3>care of themselves, who are clearly you know, there's there's

0:54:32.080 --> 0:54:36.000
<v Speaker 3>a term for disturbed individuals. You know there's a fix

0:54:36.080 --> 0:54:38.520
<v Speaker 3>everything button, nobody has the courage to press it.

0:54:39.160 --> 0:54:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Doing what is Necessary would be a terrific name for

0:54:42.640 --> 0:54:44.960
<v Speaker 1>a self help motivational podcast.

0:54:45.320 --> 0:54:48.640
<v Speaker 3>Just a thought that consider. That's you know, that's me.

0:54:48.760 --> 0:54:53.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm just I'm just miss miss warm and let's help people.

0:54:53.320 --> 0:54:57.399
<v Speaker 1>And you're very you're very helpful. Okay, Emma Joe, final word?

0:54:57.400 --> 0:55:00.879
<v Speaker 3>Anything else in your mind? No, I think I got

0:55:00.880 --> 0:55:03.560
<v Speaker 3>my venting about the left out today. Wow.
